Heavy downpours on Wednesday led to Guernsey's wettest day since last summer, the Met Office said. The Guernsey Met Office said 33.3mm (1.3in) of rainfall was recorded in a 24-hour period at Guernsey Airport, a third of the island's 92mm (3.6mm) monthly average for January.

The Met Office said showers tonight will lead to a risk of ice in some parts of the country - those showers could fall as snow over high ground in Northern Ireland and lower levels across northern Sco
The latest Met Office maps show a band of wintry weather sweeping across the UK from the west, with the western parts of Scotland predicted to see snowfall around 9pm on Thursday. At around the same time, the weather front will see rain and hail hitting most of Northern Ireland as it continues to move east.
The UK could be hit by heavy snowfall and sub-zero temperatures in the coming days, with maps showing up to 46cm of snow - but the Met Office has issued its own forecast
Storm Ivo and Storm Herminia are two of the latest storms to follow Storm Éowyn, which saw red weather warnings issued across Scotland and Northern Ireland. Nearly a million properties were left without power across the British Isles, with wind gusts in excess of 100mph.
In its three-month outlook, the Met Office cites a number of factors that will contribute to Northern Europe and the UK seeing windier weather, including the jet stream – a key driver of the record-breaking 114 mph winds seen in Ireland last week.
Yellow weather warnings for wind and heavy rain have been issued for large parts of the UK as a new storm is set to wreak havoc following Éowyn last week.
In 2024, the annual average minimum temperature for the UK was the equal-warmest on record, matching the previous record set in 2023. The consequence of this has been some mild nights and far fewer frosts than normal, particularly in February and December. Meanwhile, the annual average daily maximum temperature was 8th warmest in the series.
UK weather maps show the possibility of snow over Wales and the UK in the coming days. However reports of blizzards and a “wall of snow” appear to be wide of the mark.
The Met Office yellow warning of ice will be in place in northern Scotland between 10pm on Wednesday and 10am on Thursday.
